To be clear, you're correct that this wasn't intended to result in any changes on cgroup v1, so I'm not against the change. Especially for stable, though, I'd like to understand what the real results and ramifications are here.

As explained above, the user tool parsing memory.oom_control is affected by this behavioral change, and what's worse is there is no documentation on it. I'm not agaist it if we think that is not enough to cc:stable.
